So Sumi!

Ladies,

Need a quick and easy salad to serve at a summer picnic or gathering? Well here's just the thing! Whenever I bring this delish dish to a pot-luck or pool party, the ladies devour it and ask for more. Now you can be a hit at your pot-luck as well!

Betty's So Sumi Summer Salad (Party Size)
2 bags ready-made cole slaw from the salad section of your grocery
2 pkgs of Chicken flavor Ramen Noodles, uncooked!
6 T rice vinegar
3 scallion, chopped
1/4 c olive oil
1/4 c sugar
1/2 c slivered almonds
2 T sesame seeds
salt and pepper to taste

In a clean jar, combine your oil, sugar, vinegar and spice packets from ramen noodles and scallions. Shake and set aside. Over low heat, toast almonds until golden. Add sesame seeds and toast a teensy bit longer. Be careful not to burn them because you'll have to throw out the whole mess and start over. Nothing ruins this salad quicker than burnt seeds! Put the uncooked noodles in a large zippy bag and give it some whacks with a rolling pin or other heavy object, enough to crumble the noodles. Dump in your nuts and seeds. Now take a large bowl, the bags of slaw, the jar and your baggie to your party. Right before serving open the bags of slaw into your bowl, tump in the dressing and toss. Cover with contents of baggie. Eat all at once as it won't keep.
